This page contains the public GREGOR documentation, always with a link to the most recent version. Internal GREGOR documents can be obtained by asking for the link. All GREGOR documents are version controlled. To create/update a document on the website, please follow the instructions at the end of this page, including using the proper template and naming, and email the final version to GSTOT@leibniz-kis.de (Rolf Schlichenmaier, Reiner Volkmer, Karin Gerber). This first section contains shortcuts to the most important documents to be used during observations.

Templates and Instructions for Documentation

Please read the instructions in GRE-KIS-MAN-0001 on how to write version-controlled documents and use the provided template. All documents are named GRE-III-CCC-NNNN_vYYY_docname.pdf, where III is the institute abbreviation (KIS, MPS, AIP) and CCC one of the allowed categories (the complete list can be found in GRE-KIS-MAN-0001). NNNN is a sequential four-digit number for each category. vYYY is an integer version number, which is the only part that changes in the filename if any changes to the document are made and docname is (part of) the document title without any white spaces. For instrument-related documents, it is possible (if desired) to include the instrument in the identifier, e.g. GRE-BBI-KIS-NNNN.
